you believe what the leftists believe

This is an association fallacy. Whether it is true or not is 100% irrelevant to any logical argument, that is why it is a fallacy. It is used to bolster an argument (or just an opinion if you prefer) through an appeal to pathos, which is, by definition, an illogical argument (not an appeal to logos).

If the Q team staged a fake assassination attempt, how are we any better than the cabal?

It's a bit of a read, but you are welcome to read this response to a similar question I gave earlier today. Note it is in two parts, though the second part is a fair bit shorter. Like I said, it's a bit of a read, but I believe it will fully answer your question.
